Yoga Routine

Wednesday, October 11, 2017
I woke at my usual time this morning of 5:00 AM and will be hitting my mat soon.

While this blog has been nearly 100% about me, and my personal practice, I hope that you'll gain some wisdom and experience here (all with an enormous pinch of salt, as you shouldn't believe anything you read on the interwebz).  In the vein, however, check out a Men's Health article on the benefits of yoga here.

I'll be hitting my mat for some Vinyasas shortly.

Wednesday, October 11, 2017 (Part II)
I'm writing this on my mat, having just come out of Savasana.

No fear, I thought last night as I went to bed.  Fear creeps into one's life very easily, and takes many forms.  There is no need to be afraid of anything, ever, not even death.  When one dies, one goes back home to God. 

I'm going to maintain that focus today as I move through the challenges and trials of the day. 

On another note, I have still been listening to the awesome, trance-inducing yoga tunez linked here. 

I'm going to shower, and take this shaped version of myself, out into the day.

Namaste

Good Enough

Thursday, December 19, 2024 Feelings and emotions (in general) are things that I advise anyone to be aware of, but to never let them control you (a feeling isn't real and an emotion isn't real either, despite what Pixar and Inside Out, etc. all have to say to us about emotions).   The emotion/feeling of being "good enough" can work for us and against us (some days we feel more than good enough and some days we don't); whether "good enough" is working for us or against us, it should still be observed, but never focused on much.  I woke up not feeling "very good" and or "good enough" and or blah blah blah...... I am happy that I'm on my mat, and beginning my practice as I know I will feel better afterwards.  Time to begin... Part II: As always, I write the initial post before my practice, and I write the Part II immediately after I've concluded my practice.   My perspective and outlook has changed so much from a few hours ago.  ...

Monday Yoga

Monday, July 24, 2023, After an enjoyable and yoga-less week and weekend, I'm back on my mat. We'll see what today's practice brings.  It's 5:20am, and it's time to begin... Part II: As always, the first update is before I practice, and Part II is written immediately after my practice is complete; usually about ~2 hours later.  I was stiff.  I was sore.  I was unfocused.  I was bloated. No matter how "uninspired" a practice can be, it always refines you into a better version of yourself.  For that, I'm grateful.  Time to enter the world.  Namaste

Tuesday Yoga

Tuesday, April 30, 2019 Last day of April 2019. I woke at my usual 4:30AM this morning and had my hour of coffee and contemplation. Physically, I'm feeling good.  Slightly sore and stiff, but feeling overall well. Mentally, I'm feeling fairly well controlled, but I can sense my brain flitting from one thought to the next.  I'm going to focus on controlling my thoughts this morning, and add an extra "omph" to my physical practice to help sweat out any over-active tendencies. Spiritually, I'm feeling well.  I'm secure, solid, and whole.  Time to sweat it out.
